I'm very sorry to hear this news. On this NG and a few similar technical
groups, there are a handful of people whose posts are mandatory reading for
me. Mr. Edwards ranked very high in that list. I've also found his
technical programs to be useful again and again. That's saying something,
considering the wealth of technical programs available on the internet.

His non-technical writings are equally impressive to me. If you haven't
read "A Bit About Reg" recently, take another look.

This and some similar diversions in newsgroup posts disprove (for me) the
stereotype of the technologist as being somehow limited outside his narrow
field of expertise.

Here's hoping that wherever he is, the propagation is good, the wine
excellent, and the technical discussions lively and spirited.
